I believe it’s important to maintain transparency in government, as long as care is taken to maintain that transparency from both sides – replacing a wall with a window does no good if outside interests are allowed to paint over the window. That said, I’m glad to see that the FDA is inviting commentary from the public at large before making their decision.
